What's happened...?

Why have things changed? Why is it the people we held close to us as those we trust are turning against us? Why are there those we supposedly stand up for us and talk behind others' backs? What's become of everyone?

I'm getting sick and tired of this not only in school, but everywhere. I've been scarred forever because of it, and yet it keeps happening. And people pick on others just to impress their friends. I have one example of a kid who's just lost all his care for living, and I worry that he's just going to go and kill himself one day. My friend Jenny and I share the same fear. We can all see what's happening, but we don't know what to do.

And the people here... People I thought I knew have changed so much. I admit it, there are some who I'm even afraid of talking to.

What in the world's happening to us? Go ahead, say I'm stupid. Won't really matter. I endure it every day of my life. But if you think about it, then you know that something is really wrong.

It's human nature. I've long since become cynical on this topic.

What's important is that we worked it out, kupo. I think even you should agree on that. It's going to happen, like Secret said. What you do with the time you're handed is what matters, or whatever Gandalf told Frodo.

I agree...some ppl have no manners what so ever nowadays. Everyone at school is always picking on someone and no one tries to help. People really should start respecting people more everywhere instead of trying to be better than everyone else. Sometimes it seems like im the only one that really does try to help and only then do ppl start helping. I guess we really should be more considerate to people,what fun is making fun of people? if You do that its just stupid and only shows that you don't feel so great about yourself. Like the saying goes "those who feel awesome about themselves don't need to make others feel below"

Worked it out? Maybe you did for yourself, but I never have. It still hurts to even talk to you here sometimes.

you know, it's the people here who influence others and change them. I know from reading stuff here that people have changed, and in some cases, for the worst.

I know several people like that, unfortunately. I hate them so much. T.T

Ah, okay, you want to get into the personal. Well, I'll hold my tongue on that. I know exactly how that'll turn out if I start yapping on that, kupo.

That's part of life I suppose. Once you reach your thirteenth year, maybe before, you realize that sort of thing, and boundless optimism is replaced by cold, harsh reality. It's just how things end up working. People change, some for good, and some for bad. It seems these days that its mostly for the worst. I don't much care to worry about such things. I accept it as life, that I can't change anything, that my own life, as are many others, are inconsequential. Some rise above it, but most are dragged into the mire of mediocrity. Some can't handle that, others ignore it. I suppose I would be proactive, if this was anything new.......


Dare I ask, but what prompted this?

That's one of the many hardships in life. People grow up, people change. Some people you were the closest friends with suddenly shift away. I know I lost my elementary/middle school best friend that way. She disliked the way I dressed, the way I acted.. and sent me a rude letter. She told me to change my ways and act popular or she will no longer talk to me. That letter I had read before CCD and I was filled with tears that day.. Its just amazing sometimes how people change..

All for being myself that is, I will never give into pressures to have myself changed. I am Mia Takahashi, I'm not the next Jill, or Lily, or whatever :P

Anyhow point of this is people change, and I know this. Its hard to get over the fact that they change sometimes, I guess that's apart of growing up.

On forums and offline I always try to be a mature and well mannered person most of the time. I listen to what others have to say and its quite interesting. I love being quiet sometimes, taking things in like a sponge :)

What prompted me to do this was the fact I'm still haunted by how I was treated by someone I thought cared about me, and the fact that my friend is in the hospital right now because his so called "friend" assaulted him.

Ya....i don't hate them but pity them....cause it only shows how weak they are. I never rly got badly picked on but its always hurt to see sumone hurt and sad. i don't know how sum1 can make sum1 cry and not feel bad about it. Thats why at school i always never let anyone get picked on in front of me...if sum1 talks bad about sum1 that didn't do anything to deserve it i tell them off and every1 respects me cause of it. But sometimes i think why doesn't anyone else try to help? why do those other people who help that person who makes others feel worse help them? But i guess we already know the answer

I'd have to say that 90% of people care about themselves before anyone else. There will always be bullys and idioit people who always think they are right, but there are also those people who decide to just give it up instead of doing something about thier problems or who just go that way out of having nothing to do or whatever. I'd say that some people need to know that few people will help someone else fix their own problems because they have their own to worry about, some need to learn the difference between a joke and an insult, and some just need a sense of humor. Having a little fun will help counteract the bad stuff.

That's horrible news, I pray that he gets out of there safely. Hospitals aren't always my favorite places in the world, guess its since my dad never liked them. And the fact that the hospital I was born in kind of had this whole issue on switching babies and parents getting the wrong ones.

Yeah I know that my brother has problems with friends at school, the people who say they are his friends turn their backs and make fun of him. Its truely a horrible thing there. I just hope that never turns into anything violent.

Yeah, I never want to be in a hospital again after my bro had to go there because he was shoved into a pole racing his friend to the cafeteria.

It happens everywhere, you know. There's some of us who try to change things, but we just get made fun of because we're Christians and doing what God wants us to do. If you are a firm believer in God, not part of any of the popular crowds, or like things that are different from others, it seems you're a prime target most of the time.

I'm getting sick of it, seriously.
